Hello List,

It was a request yesterday about English subtitles for Sikhote-Alin movie.

I decided to play a little bit here. So I created some subtitles for a 
part

of the movie.
I cut the end of the movie and kept the only part with field works.
I want you not to judge me so much because that was my first experience 
with

this software. I translated sentence by sentence from the voice behind the
screen. I also used an online translator from Russian to English. It paid
off as long as I wanted to do this job fast to see if I'm able to create
something like that. Of course I modified sentences but not all of them 
and
not perfect. Actually I can't modify them perfect as long as my own 
English

is far away from perfect ;-)
Also for some reason the software changed the size of the file (and screen
resolution) so now the file is about 70Mb (was 56Mb) and instead of actual
320x240 I have 640x480.
You can switch your player to 50% view and it will be the same quality as
original (I guess ;-)).
One more time: that was my first try with this software and correction of
video files at all.
I played for 9 hours but I can see now that I can do it! That was a fun 
for

me yesterday!

If somebody thinks that I should try more and keep translating the rest of
the movie (some nice meteorites from great collection of Russian academy 
of

sciences are showing on the end of it without translation) I can find some
time later to do this. But I think that first part must be re-done to be
more readable. If somebody has an interest to help me with this please 
send

me your thoughts of how subtitles must be written.

I will try to get the file back to the original resolution later also. 
That
should reduce the size of the file. The file is in the same format as it 
was

(.wmv).

The movie with subtitles is ready for download here:

EXCELLENT!

I would really like to see the rest translated, if you ever find the time. 
I'm sure your translated version will be on every meteorite enthusiast's 
hard drive.


If you decide to make it your personal project and perfect it, there was one 
typo I noticed: "carter" instead of "The whole crater field!" at the 3:42 
mark.


Thanks, Sergey!

Thanks for making the time and effort to provide a translation (which I haven't 
seen yet because it
is still downloading).

There is, though, an easier way to make the subtitles available to everyone.  
There are several
formats now for "soft" or software subtitles, which are stored in a seperate 
file.  Some of the
formats are as simple as text files that contain the text plus the time index 
of when the line that
was translated was said.  The subtitle file is then saved with the same name as 
the video file, but
with a different extension-- for example, if the movie is call sikhote.avi, the 
subtitle would be
sikhote.srt.  Some media players (such as the beyond excellent freeware Media 
Player Classic) can
read these subtitle files directly, and there are various small helper 
applications to allow other
media players to read the file.  Using this method, you don't have to re-encode 
video, and you don't
have to have the space and bandwidth to allow people to download translations, 
and people don't have
to have the bandwidth to download new versions of the film.  I use these all 
the time when watching
foriegn language movies with no "official" English translation.

Here's a small clip of a random SRT file that I still have on my hard drive (it 
happens to be from
the Japanese move Azumi 2: Death or Love, just for the record).  See the 
syntax-- it is a plain-text
file saved with the extension .srt.  You number each line, put the time index 
to start displaying
the subtitle, the time index when you stop displaying the subtitle, and then 
the line to be shown.
No special header or footer text needs to be added at the beginning or end.  It 
would probably end
up being easier to do than whichever software you are using now.

Thanks, Sergey - great work!
For years I had admired this fall & I even bought the terrific
painting by Jerry Armstrong, "SIKHOTE-ALIN: GROUND ZERO" and
put it atop my on line catalog. After all these years it is great to see
the actual site and the original search conducted there. Seeing is
certainly a different experience from reading about it.
Thanks! Michael

of the movie.
I cut the end of the movie and kept the only part with field works.
I want you not to judge me so much because that was my first experience 
with

this software. I translated sentence by sentence from the voice behind the
screen. I also used an online translator from Russian to English. It paid
off as long as I wanted to do this job fast to see if I'm able to create
something like that. Of course I modified sentences but not all of them 
and
not perfect. Actually I can't modify them perfect as long as my own 
English

is far away from perfect ;-)
Also for some reason the software changed the size of the file (and screen
resolution) so now the file is about 70Mb (was 56Mb) and instead of actual
320x240 I have 640x480.
You can switch your player to 50% view and it will be the same quality as
original (I guess ;-)).
One more time: that was my first try with this software and correction of
video files at all.
I played for 9 hours but I can see now that I can do it! That was a fun 
for

me yesterday!

If somebody thinks that I should try more and keep translating the rest of
the movie (some nice meteorites from great collection of Russian academy 
of

sciences are showing on the end of it without translation) I can find some
time later to do this. But I think that first part must be re-done to be
more readable. If somebody has an interest to help me with this please 
send

me your thoughts of how subtitles must be written.

I will try to get the file back to the original resolution later also. 
That
should reduce the size of the file. The file is in the same format as it 
was

(.wmv).

The movie with subtitles is ready for download here:

Excellent Bernd!!   That sounds just like what it is.   There is no obvious 
troilite showing so maybe it was part of the half that split off this piece.   
Thanks for your always informative posts.

OK, ... taking a stab at what it might be. If it is NOT one of those
impact-produced surface craters that McHone and M. Killgore describe
in "Impact-produced surface craters on Sikhote-Alin irons" (cp. MAPS
33-4, Supplement, 1998, p. A101), it might be troilite surrounded by
schreibersite + swathing kamacite.

Buchwald wrote about Sikhote-Alin:

"Troilite occurs in minor amounts, mostly associated with the
schreibersite skeleton crystals which in many instances may have
nucleated upon the troilite. The troilite forms 1-10 mm nodules
and lenticular bodies. In most cases it forms the central part
of cm-sized, intricate, lace-like textures where schreibersite
filaments and hieroglyphs radiate from the troilite in structures
that suggest coarse-grained eutectics (+). Similar structures are
present in, e.g., Sao Juliao, Sandia Mountains and  S a n t a
L u z i a*."

.., and on p. 1074, Buchwald wrote about Santa Luzia*:

BUCHWALD V.F. (1975) Iron Meteorites (Univ. of
California, 1975, Vol.3, excerpts from p. 1074):

"Not only is the troilite elongated parallel to the present exterior surface,
but the schreibersite-metal eutectics (+) associated with it also appear to
have formed parallel cylinders 10-40 mm in diameter. Later, swathing kamacite
has grown around these cylinders in the solid state to form concentric shells,
5-15 mm thick. Troilite forms the central part of the cylinders, but, since
it pinches and swells irregularly, it may or may not be present in a given
section perpendicular to the cylinders."

(+) McSWEEN H.Y. (1999) Meteorites and Their Parent Planets
Cambridge University Press, Glossary, p. 290): the liquid that
occurs at the lowest temperature in a chemical system.

So, maybe, we are looking at a cross-section of such a cylinder.

Well, probably not quite as interesting as the ongoing discussion
about fraudulent trade practices, but, anyway, ... my stab ;-)

Hi All,

I knew I had seen that feature somewhere, but I could not remember at the time.

Anyway I found it. It was in a 0.334g oriented Bensour individual I
have in my collection.

Here are three pics of the piece. While on an entirely different
scale, both in size and class, it does have a striking resemblance to
the feature in the Sikhote-Alin that caused this thread.
